Champions League Final: 4 Reasons To Support Borussia Dortmund

1. They Deserve It More

dortmund Pop along to your local time machine centre and take a trip back eight years to Dortmund. You'll find their local football club in crisis, paying the price for years of overspending and failure to qualify for the Champions League, a club that in five seasons had gone from winning the Bundesliga to fighting to stay in the top flight. If you're feeling brave, approach a Dortmund fan and tell them they'll be in the Champions League final in six years. I can't imagine their reaction would be anything other than anger at your cruel, blatant lies. Yet, six years on, Die Schwarzgelben have gone from a laughing stock to the most admired team in the world. They cut costs in intelligent ways to stay afloat, invested time and money into youth academy graduates and rough diamonds from across the world, nurtured them into world-class players, and slaughtered the opposition in astounding fashion. If they win the Champions League, it will be decisive proof that you don't have to throw vast sums of money at assorted Galacticos, as the likes of PSG, Man City and, though it might be unfair to put them in the same bracket considering they've made their cash organically, Bayern Munich have tried to win big in Europe; you just need a clear head and talent. Who do you want to win the Champions League Final? Will you be supporting Dortmund or are Bayern your favourites? Let us know in the comment section, below.
